Pay your regional council rates

Ratepayers in the Ōpōtiki District will now receive rates invoices from Ōpōtiki District Council and Toi Moana Bay of Plenty Regional Council separately.

The final joint rates invoice is April 2022. Please pay this as usual.

Your first rates notice of 2022/23 from Ōpōtiki District Council will be in July. This rates invoice will not include Regional Council rates so if you pay by Automatic Payment, please check and change your amount before July. If you pay by Direct Debit, the amount will be automatically adjusted.

You will receive your first rates invoice from Bay of Plenty Regional Council in September 2022. This is an annual invoice so you will only receive one per year. You will need to pay this to Bay of Plenty Regional Council directly. Find out more about how to pay these rates, how to set up invoices by email, and payment options available on the Bay of Plenty Regional Council website.

If you are applying for Rates Rebate Scheme, we suggest you wait until you receive your regional council rates invoice so that you can include this in your application.
